A short...five weeks later and here we are again, albeit with a new slave driver at the helm.

Howdy, everyone. For those who have yet to have the pleasure of meeting me, I am Brian of reviews and MIDIs lore. My job is usually to come into a section after a head steps down, clean it up a bit, and...control it for a lot longer than intended. But Tim has done a wonderful job in controlling this section during his tenure, and I hope I can live up to his standard of quality.

However, with a new fearless leader comes a new method of doing things. Today's update is kind of just an excuse to point out that the FanFics section will be undergoing major renovation for the next few weeks. As such, it will likely be difficult to post regular updates during this period. I figured that you, the fans, deserved an explanation for the delays that you have been and will be experiencing. So please, bear with me during this period. After the section overhaul is complete, I will make another update to outline some of the changes that have been made. Stay tuned!

But today is not only about changes and renovations; it is also about continuing two wonderful stories that have been featured in several previous FanFic updates. From author Ashbear, I proudly give you chapter four of Final Fantasy VIII-based fic, Castles in the Sky. Also featured today is chapter seven of K'Arthur's ongoing, If Love Were Only Part of The Equation based on Lunar Silver Star Story Complete. Both are wonderful stories thus far, and I am happy to bring the next installations of both.

I am currently working hard on section changes, but as soon as I am done I will begin to tackle the backlog (and believe me, it is quite a backlog. Thanks Tim...). So if you are still waiting for a fic you have sent in to be posted, do not fret for it shall appear as soon as I can read it. Thank you for your patience, and try to read these two fics slowly to give me time for the next update. K?
